Robot Enabled Analytics for Water Utility Infrastructure and Asset Maintenance

敏锐机器人有限公司(AR)是利兹大学及其Real Robotics实验室于2019年剥离出来的，目的是将其检查机器人商业化。自来水公司运营复杂的管网，有关系统连通性和资产状况的信息有限。发生故障并影响性能时，通常会采取措施。干预的目的是为了尽快解决具体问题。修复的现场报告可能包括发现的任何问题的图像和一些文字描述。这些是不同的报告，只能在表面上相互参照，导致无法洞察当地和国家其他资产的状况。AR的创新是一种智能的、数据驱动的分析和决策工具，通过应用于现场的机器人技术来快速而简单地捕获现场数据。

Acuity Robotics Limited (AR) is a spin-out from the University of Leeds and its Real Robotics lab in 2019 to commercialise its inspection robots. Water utilities operate complex pipe networks with limited information on system connectivity and asset condition. Action is typically taken once failure occurs and performance is compromised. The purpose of the intervention is to fix the specific problem ASAP. Onsite reports of the fix may include images of any issues found and some textural description. These are disparate reports that can only be cross-referenced on a superficial level resulting in loss of insight to the condition of other assets locally and nationally. AR's innovation is an intelligent, data-driven analysis and decision-making tool enabled through robotic technology applied in the field to capture onsite data rapidly and simply.
